Gee, what’s the rush? This has only been going on for years.
I did lose in the office pool, however. I was betting the Wall by our border would be built before we went after the Iranians.

This is a bunch of silly State Dept feel good crap and will have absolutely no effect on Iran’s military. These people are morons.

Excellent move, Europe’s negotiations have obviously been impotent as usual.

You gotta love this line,
marks the first time that the United States has tried to isolate or punish another country's military
Having last night watched Ken Burn's "The War", I'd say this is not the first time the United States has punished another country's military

...weapons of mass destruction....NOT AGAIN!!!!!!
Come on now George....give a better reason than this. How about just saying that they're supplying the enemy in Iraq or something equally not WMD related?

This move takes some brass ones by Bush, who I admire.
It should set the stage for a blockade of Iran and leave open the option of bombing Iran’s military.

This is gonna tic off a lot of people. LOL. GO W!! I tend to agree. We will be using the strength of our economy and our position in global commerce against them. Reagan used economic strength against the Soviets, but not in such a direct way.
